Thankful Thursday

Oh my goodness – it’s Thursday again, isn’t it? I guess I need to ponder who I’m grateful for today! I can see this is going to be difficult each week, to narrow down WHOM I want to be thankful for-I have been blessed by so many, how will I ever pick!?!?!

I think I’ll share my thankfulness for my co-worker, Sharon Knowles. The picture enclosed is of a pair of shoes she purchased on her latest jaunt to New York City! She cracks me up! She has to be the most “IN STYLE” woman I know! She is extremely intelligent, generous beyond measure, an exceptional leader, kind to everyone, all around wonderful woman – who has been a fabulous mentor/inspiration to me for the past 3 years.

The funny part of our friendship/working relationship is that after approximately one week of working in this office, she poked her head around the cubicle and asked if I was related to my father-in-law. To make a long story short, it turned out Sharon and I are related – a tad distant, but I DESPERATELY want to claim her. Her sister is married to my husband’s cousin. In other words, my father-in-laws brother’s nephew is her brother-in-law. In case trying to decipher this equation gives you a headache, summarize it to say I am blessed to be related to Sharon (even if it’s distant!).

Stay tuned for next week’s post….I think I’ll share about a sweet little girl in Brazil!
